Washington DC-based La Plainian Dr. Emanuel Finn is urging MP for La Plaine, Mr. Petter St. Jean to strongly consider stepping down from the government due to mounting and credible evidence that he contested the last two elections as a French citizen in violation of Dominica’s constitution.
According to Finn, ‘In so doing, St. Jean will show the real and true face of the dire political and constitutional quagmire that Dominica has found itself in’.
Finn contents that, Mr. Jean’s resignation would send a very powerful and fundamental message that elections won due to fraudulent, deceitful, devious, unlawful advantages and arrogance, amount to the greatest of all failures and moral defeats. He would also demonstrate that he is not abandoning the teachings of the good book, the bible, and the values and doctrines of Christianity which he embraces as a born again Christian and preacher’.
Dr. Finn goes on to say, ‘It is very humiliating for someone I grew up with in the La Plaine Valley to be hammered and ridicule in the public arena to such a degree. We are a dignified, respectful, understanding and supportive people in spite of our political differences. Our courageous forbearers like Mr. Pierre Colaire left a legacy of pride, purpose and a strong sense of destiny, duty and identity for us. Our generation grew up in our small and cohesive village with knowledge of our rich and pain history, a confidence and strong belief that anything is possible and can be achieved with hard work, patience and honesty.’
‘By resigning Petter will maintain his dignity and will have a brighter future in Dominican politics and if he chooses, will continue to contribute and play an immense role in the development of the rural south eastern Au Vent region’.
Dr. Finn concludes that, ‘By stepping down from the Skerrit lead administration, MP. St. Jean will be respected as a strong law abiding patriot, and will be allowing history, his moral compass, spiritual values and beliefs and not ill political winds and fortunes to be his guiding light’.

Hellllllooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lets not be biased. Ron Green Is an American Citizen. An old aged American citizen who doesn’t know when to give up. Hon. Petter is doing a fantastic job and none of us in the la pLine consituency cannot deny that. If he is unfit to contest the General elections in Dominica, so is Ron himself. So why should DR.JNO FINN argue such a useless arguement when Ron is only a reflection of petter himeself in terms of citizenship?
Before i make my comment or comments i would like to say that i am a none voter and none supporter of any political party.I’ve read all the above comments and i found most or all of them to be of poor taste and lacking in substance,objectivity,intelligence and wisdom.That’s the reason why the late Pierre Charles said we are wearing our ignorance as a badge of honour and politition will continue to take us for a ride.We are considered to be one of the less intelligent people among the islands.All of those supporting the DLP have failed to deny the wrong doings of the government but rather tried to attack,insult and defend by making comparisons with the former citizenship of Ron Green,what a shame.I do not expect most of you to understand my contribution as i suspect that there’s no sense of reasoning in you.
mr fin or wat eva dat is ur name…hope u can remember the salute to greatness award they strip from u….GOT IT FROM GUD SOURCE!!!!!!……u belive my pal-rep goin to step down because of such nonsensical issues u bring upon the internet…i want to know if is ur fingers that scratchin u..fraid allu fraid…i want to know if sot allu sot…o but wait u guys are sot ones
Why is it that, Dr. Finn did not ask Ron to resign during his 15 years of non-effective representation in La Plaine, even when he was fully aware that Ron was an american citizen and held dual citizenship?
No he wants Hon. Petter St. Jean to resign over that same issue! At least St. Jean brings much better representation than Ron ever would. But I guess this is the trademark of a philosophically and dishonest UWP.
Well, I guess if you walk like a duck and quack like a duck, you must be a duck. Same dishonest Ron, same dishonest Dr. Finn.
Personal attacks is not the way to a healthy debate,show that you could have a civil dicuss.That is for those who getting personal stick to the issue
Who is Dr jno Finn?. I would like to know . I hope he knows that he his self in not a Dominican.Peter Skerrit all of them are Dominican just as Ron
I would like to know what awakened this dual citizenship issue? Politicians holding dual citizenship is not knew to Dominica. Even our late Prime Minister Rosie Douglas boasted of having 5 passports. No one took any offence or objection to it. Why all of a sudden everybody and his mother have made this issue such a big controversy.
Well if this matter is in court then let the court deal with it and stop attacking each other over the issue. We are all Dominicans and whether or not one holds dual citizenship he should not be castigated because what ever he or she does they mean good for Dominica.
Stop the fighting and bashing and don’t let politics divide us. We gain nothing from it.
One thing i must say thou ,i am much ashame of the way petter st jean i handeling the word of God.As he being a preacher and as he says a man of God,where is his TESTIMONY to the unsave?Does he preach what he does or does he do what he preach?my God .Money is realy the root of evil .As we normaly say he put down the jacket (christian)to be famous and make money.Be real my brother don’t forsake God for fame or money. The devil will always make the world welcome you and let you feel comfortable but remember your connection with God.God is what should matter most ,so be real and get back on tract with God.
ashame be very ashame because your heart is filled with hatred and jealousy towards petter. where he is GOD placed him there and nothing u dominicans who r so envious who claim to no GOD trying to paint a bad picture of petter because of his faith, one thing for sure u all should no that they who trust in their LORD GOD almighty shall be as mt zion which cannot be removed but abideth for ever, ashame be ashame of ur ways and repent from ur sins.
There goes another American-based, ‘remote-in-hand’ Doctor with all the right prescriptions for change!
Well peter has a final chance redeem himself by resigning but he is too shamed to da so. Whether or not ron green had dual citizenship is irrelavant to the matter. they could have and still take him to court. Now to all those sayin the man should not talk cause he leaves overseas shame on u! Wen skerrit brought all those ppl to vote from overseas to vote it was no problem.
And to those sayin let the court decide!!!!! Oh boy!!! It is clear that u cannot contradict the facts and praying that the courts are corrupt enough to let this one out on a technicality!
DR. FINN I THINK YOUR MOTIVE TOWARDS PETTER IS PURE JEALOUSY. YOU WERE NOT EXPECTING THAT HE WOULD REACH SO FAR TO BE EDUCATION MINISTER. GOD BLESSED
YOU WITH A DOCTOR DEGREE SO WHATS YOUR PROBLEM. RON AND PETTER IS IN THE SAME BOAT YOU SHOULD ASK THE SAME FROM GREEN. DON’T BE A HYPOCRITE.
But what happen to that sistah nuh !
Dr. Finn or Jno Finn as we knew you at La Plaine Karine School let’s be fair. Why don’t you ask Ron Green to make a full disclosure of the details of his citizenship then challenge Petter and Skeritt to do on the radio and tv just as he did with his assessets. Careful he may end up in court for failure to declare.
I suppose Mr. Green can defend himslef and as far as giving details and that is his decision. But certainly I agree with you its probably a good idea for him to clear the air on such matters.
La Plaine Karine School–such great memories………………… Do you knwo that the name ‘Karine’ came from our sister school in Don Mills, Ontario where we had the penpals. I visited that school some ten years ago for that reason.
ya DR it seem like is your family that has the habit of staying away and talking. but its a shame for Mr, Green that you guys cant come to put ur vote for him. u take your time and give Petter all your insults on THE SUN and now you want to come on DNO and act like most concerned and know what God expect from him and everything? well all sin is sin so you stop your sin of hypocrisy and put everything in their rightful place.
i am not saying that you have to be a supporter of Petter but even though you are not does not mean that you have to act dumb. be realistic. ya u support the opposition (like all the rest of ur family, especially the ones that cannot come back to “THEIR” country) but u need to support with reason. when good is done say it. be man enough to admit that good is good…
i am sure that people are not saying that Dominicans overseas cannot voice their opinion but they are saying that this specific Dominican has not been to Dominica in donkey years and if he ever came back since he left did not act like he cared when he came cause no young person in Laplaine knows who he is or where he is from. so if you want to give advice start by setting an example. at least visit to see for yourself what petter has done that Ron claim to not have been able to do….
Dr Finn I think that there are some more urgent matters that you should attend to. For one you need to explain to us how is it that you and your sister have the same father but your surname is Finn and hers is JNo Finn. Just maybe you need to explain this to the US state department. Is ther something worthy of hiding?
Dr. Finn, if you knew Peter you would not talk about some of the things you mentioned. Peter epitomizes hard work. He was a full time farmer and a full time teacher at the same time and none suffered. Presently with one day a week for himself, peter sells plantains every week. He knows that he did not inherit anything from his parents and that he has to work hard. The majority of Laplainians now do not plant a thing because they think if they do peter will make a name. He already has because what Ron did not do in 15 years representation Peter has done in 4 years. You see your problem dr finn is that ti bwaye alexi a passa sorti dixacre and be a minister. THINGS ARE HAPPENING DR. COME DOWN AND SEE. BY THE WAY BRING SHIRLEY TOO. IF SHE CAN COME
shirley playing farmville she cannot come down. plus farmville eh give her greencard yet. her mother die she did not come down so is not now she will come down. DR finn too, his aunty died and he could not help them bury her much less for him to go down.
I wonder how this man got his doctorate? Is he really a practicing dentist? Soon we might hear that he has been practicing with bogus papers. This cannot be a doctor speaking. Was he a doctor when Ron Green was the US parl Rep for La Plaine? If so why is it that it’s only now he is calling for the parl rep to do the honourable thing. Dr Finn you are so transparent that the article of hate that you wrote about Peter,Skeritt and the DLP in the Sun Newspaper are still dripping BLOOD.
The problem with people like this Doctor Whatever, is that he and Petter come from the same area in La Plaine called Plaisance. He went to DGS in 1973 and a few years later Petter went to SMA. He migrated to the US and Petter never left Da but taught every person in La Plaine 40 years and younger. He never expected Peter to be a minister because in his mind this is a job for the upper class like Ron. So sorry Dr Finish times have changed and Petter the son of a poor man from La Plaine and a French woman who couldn’t speak english is the parl rep and minister for La Plaine. He eh going no where.
Dr Fin,come help me plant some dahseen I have there with all that brain you have,or come help the uwp because they do not know anything about politics they are not tell me one way they are going to improve on my life and my family,labour have done of good but they got hiccups. So I am one that will not vote again,becuz cant put ppl there and they are getting rich over night and am there struggling. hell with that.
Hey Tim Tim,
I welcome your invitation and accept it. I plan to visit home sometime soon and I look forward to heading to the fields with you. We can talk politics if you want during the time we spend together or we can just talk about La Plaine or other things. We don’t have to be enemies despite our political affiliations and leanings. One thing our folks should never do is to let politics and politicians divide them. Unfortunaley that is what is happening, especially in La P laine and with our people. I look forward to my young children accompanying me so that they can understand the way life began for us.
So if you are serious send me an e-mail and let’s take it from there. Thanks for the invitation.
Emanuel Finn
YOUR DAM SURNAME IS NOT FINN,, I KNOW YOUR DAD WELL
Dr. Finn you seem to only have an interest in making jokes with Tim Tim, I hope I get a reply from you sir. In the event that the Court finds the present Ministers of Government guilty they will have tio resign and thats that. Until then, we do not have the authority to decide guilt on talk shows or on DNO forums. Dr. Finn you seem to have left out a substancial part of your comment or may be it was deleted by mistake just as you were about to press the send button. I need to ask you sir, were you ever aware that UWP had numerous members serving in Parliament while holding Dual Citizenship? If you were not aware before I am certain that Ron’s admittance is enough to get you to condemn the act of the members of UWP who have served in Dominica’s Parliament since 1990 while condemning the present DLP Members alleged to have violated the same Constitutinal Provisions? It is my uneducated but strong view that a man of your calibre should present a fair and balance comment and while asking one man to resign for an allegation not proven before a Court you should first condemn those from the blue family who have commtied the same act and additonally you should ask that they return the monies they cashed at the bak to the Treasury. If you cannot do that you will be proving that you lack intergrity sir. Peace to you.
MAESTRO,
The courts are the final arbitrator in this matter and it has the final word which we all must abide by in a fuctioning democracy Sir. I am prepared to do so when that time comes. But understand that we all have our opinions that we may or may not choose to express and expose – of course preferably with respect. I have chosen to express my position on this matter in public forums. That is the issue and matter that is before the courts and country today in the courts of public opinion.
I certainly respect your position on this matter and other similar situations. One thing I will not do is attempt to assassinate your character or get personal because you and I have differing positions on this pressing issue.
Regarding Mr. Ron Green and his colleagues’ situation with past and/or present dual citizenships. If that’s a matter for the courts then the opposing side should pursue it by all means. But the issue today is whether Mr. St. Jean and the PM violated the constitution.
Thanks
Emanuel Finn
Dr Finn you are too bias. You are so downright blind that you still cannot see that Ron was a US citizen for 15 years and was parl rep of La Plaine. Your hatred for Peter is too glearing. You pretend that you love the man but we all know that you do not have the capacity to love anyone. Remember your aunt who was destitute and it was Peter who built a house for her. Have you forgottenyou niece who was abandoned and it was peter who got her on the YES WE CARE Programme? you just too ungrateful call a spade a spade the man is a hard working representative French man or not.
Dr Finn “King” Petter Pepper is doing a great job for the people of La Plaine, Boetica and Delices. Never before have we had a parl rep who is so hard working . The problem is guys like you who abandoned the people of La Plaine who you claim to love are filled with jealousy. What you need to do now is tell Dominica what you have done for the people of La Plaine. How many missions have you mounted to help the family and friends you left in “Au Vent”? Find your self some occupation and consider helping the children of La Plaine by just coming and do a dental check at least once every five years. If you say you love Dominica stop that bashing and contribute to the country of your birth in a meaningful way.
I couldnt have said it better. its always those who contribute nothing to the welfare of the nation who are so quick to criticize the ones who are trying. thank you for such a well put statement.
In Dominica, it is not the thief who is wrong for stealing your TV in your drawing room, but the owner of the house who reports and/or prevents the thief from stealing TV set. Did anyone file a petition against Ron Green regarding dual citizenship? DLP DID NOT. That is the MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION. The opposition filed a petition against Skerritt and Petter St. Jean charging that they lied on the NOMINATION FORM before the 2009 General Elections about their dual citizenship and therefore are ILLEGAL parliamentarians. Isn’t that AGAINST the ELECTORAL LAWS? So Skerritt is above the LAW. Is Petter St. Jean above the Law?
How comes when an ordinary citizen, a poor person, commit the pettiest of offenses, he or she is brought to court, charged or jailed? Why are some of you Dominicans acting and speaking so devilishly, protecting and defending those who do wrong? Do you all accept stealing, cheating, lying by your children and you all expect them to grow up as good citizens? Devilish thinking, that’s what it is. FOOLISHNESS. Pure CRAP to condone wrong even though it is your friend who does it. STOP that STUPIDNESS. STOP THAT WICKEDNESS. STOP THAT UNCHRISTIAN-LIKE BEHAVIOUR. Such behaviour and thinking can neither serve you all, nor your children, nor the country well.
Those comments, condoning those wrongdoings, are recipes for useless fights, killings, victimization, and hatred for each other. Is so you all want Dominica to come? Skerritt and St. Jean are wrong in all instances. They are wrong knowing that they possessed Dual citizenship, but still went on for nomination. They are all now so ILLEGAL PARLIAMENTARIANS. They committed an UNLAWFUL ACT. The question is not whether Ron has or had a US passport. The issue is Skerritt and St. Jean’s DUAL CITIZENSHIP status was CHALLENGED in the courts and the FACTS, the LETTERS, written by they themselves, are there to prove. That is the ISSUE MY PEOPLE. So all you like FRAUD? All you like CHEATING and LYING? GIVE ME A BREAK.
Did Ron Green not lie 15 years ago when he took the same oath or has the oath been changed or modified . If my memory serves me right Ron himself admitted that he has been a US citizen since he was a minor
This is not about filling petitions.. it is about FAIRNESS..the UWP and Ron Green have been violating the constiution since 1995, What now is their moral authority to call for judgement against the DLP for aledgedly committing the same violation. You and the UWP condoned and defended the wrong doings of Ron when he served as parl rep for laplane for 15 years as a US citizen. As far as UWP was concerned it was acceptable then, WHY IS IT NOW NOT ACCEPTABLE. aS FAR AS U ARE CONCERNED THE ONLY GROUP OF PEOPLE IN DOMINICA WITH A PASS TO BREAK THE LAW AND VIOLATE COSTITUTION AND BE ARROGANT ABOUT IT, IS THE UWP. ..YOU SIR, ALSO FALL IN THE CATEGRY OF A FRAUD, WHEN YOU OPENLY ACCEPT WRONG DOINGS FROM ONE GROUP AND WANT TO SEND THE OTHER GROUP TO JAIL FOR COMMITTING THE SAME WRONG DOINGS.
Sir/Madam
You are a down right hypocrite. All wrongdoings is the same. You cannot condone it when it is done by one side and condem it when the other side do the same. For fifteen years Ron Green violated the Constitution of Dominica for fifteen years while being the United States of America Parliamentary Representative of Laplaine. That was ok for you it was no wrong doing by Ron Green.
What moral authority you have now to comdem another for allegedly doing the same? is it because the citizenship is French and not American?
Greetings, I see that wrong doing is wrong today but was not wrong when UWP was guilty of the same allegations. Dominicans like you and Dr Finn knew all along that there were many members of the UWP seving in Dominica’s Parliament while holding DUAL CITIZENSHIP, yet none of you exposed them and asked them to resign. You all placed your typing fingers, tongues and lips on mute. Today, all of you have come out and playing holy and perfect and speaking as if this is a nerw thing. It is against our Consitution YES , BUT it is a matter to b decided by the courts and not a talk show or Dr Finns typing fingers. I have made up my mind to file a matter against ALL UWP members who served in Dominica’s Parliament while being holderrs of foreign Passports and to have them repay ALL the salaries and other benefits that they took from the Dominican people ILLEGALLY. I HOPE DR. FIN AND PEOPLE LIKE YOU WILL SUPPORT ME! How can Dr. Finn, who claaims to be a christian person, remained quiet for four and half years of UWP rule, when he knew that the Constituttion was being violated by members of the UWP but rush out now when the same is is being alleged against members of the UWP? HOW? HOW? You guys lack intergrity sir!! .When our children are arrested for crimes we rush and get then a lawyer we never tell them to plead guilty but we are attempting today to forgo the rule of law that states,” A man is innocaent until proven guilty.” The Bible also states a wise man knows the value of Proof. We will await the ruling of the Courts and wnatever that is we all have to abide by it, until then this DLP Adminstration has work to complete on behalf of the people of Dominica and distractions will not be accomomdated. Peace.

A Dominican have right to speak weather he is home or abroad ,It shows the level of ignorance in some folks.Before condeming Dr Finn read and comprehend the message,I am not Labour or UWP supporter .But I will say Dominica is on the wrong track,and if that is what some people call developmen,I say woe be on to us all.
Boy I dere giggling wee. Since when PETTER St.Jean get Doctorate to refer to him as Dr PETTER, Eh ? Well Son Of The soil, you not easy, nuh. For that matter his credentials are (1) UAT at the Laplaine Primary School for more than 20 years (2) Fig Farmer and (3) Born again Christian – Just go an see him preach in the church below Telemacque Junction.
As an aside, why didn’t Petter wait for a response from the French embassy when he asked them to revoke his French Citizenship before nomination day? Trust me, Petter decision to run before his revocation was successful really erks me. At least, give him the credit, he knew jolly well that he would be commiting perjury when he signed the nomination papers.
Any way, we still waiting for the feeder roads in Laplaine to be rehabilitated and the Depot in Felicite to reopen and put into maximum use. Also Mr Petter may want tell us when are young aspiring farmers going to take advantatage of the Agri Training Facility that is underutized by the playing field.
hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
The array of anti-labor/pro UWP people who seem to want Skeritt, Peter and the President to annul the court case brought against Skeritt and Peter, seems to indicate only one thing:
UWP and their lawyers are convinced that they will LOSE their case.
I’m sorry…who’s Dr. Finn?
DR, FINN YOU ARE VERY JUDGEMENT. THE ADVISE IS FOCUS ON YOU PATIENTS AND LEAVE
PETER ALONE. YOU WANT HIM TO RESIGN MAYBE YOU MIGHT BE ONE WHO WILL HAVE TO.
doctor, please let the court decide. why don’t you have a private dicussion with the parl rep.instead of publicing asking him to resign as if you are judge and jury without knowing all the facts andnot knowing who else were in the same postion and you did not give your personal advise.
Dr Finn even while being in the Post of Leader of the Opposition, Ron Green was a Citizen of the United States of America with a valid US Passport. That is after the Jamaica case Ron Green remained as Leader of the Opposition while being a dual citizen. You did not asked him to resign as Leader of the Opposition? Why Dr. Finn. Why!!
All you Dominicans not easy.Why are we castigating each other negatively because of politics. .Politicians come and go. Dr finns is entitled to his opinion .
Why you people do not stop being POLITICAL BOOM BOOM FLY. That attitude is killing the country because you all people are political colour blind, only seeing Red and Blue.
So much shit is going on in Dominica. The UWP I must say like others, is working for their re election and do not have the people or the development of the country at heart.
Give the government the praise when it do something good for us in terms of development.
Dr. Finn Mr. Ron Green was the elected Parliamentary Representative for fifteen years including being a Minister of Government. (Minister of Education like Petter Saint Jean). Mr Green contested and won elections each time while being a Citizen of the United States of America.
Dr. Finn I cannot recall that you ever asked Mr Ron Green to resign why then should you be asking Petter to resign? is it because French Citizenship is of a lower grade than US Citizenship.
I believe you are a double standard hipocrite. Best you keep your mouth shut and let the Court Decide
go home and give back to your peeps in laplaine they need u stupsssssssssssssssssss
All this goes to see how nasty politics can be. This is just terrible. I totally agree that if the prime ministry and Dr St. Jean has to resign then Ron Green should do the rightful thing and step away from politics as well.
In the interest of my country, i hope that the court rules to dismiss those alegations against all involved and use this situation to educate people. It is sad that we have not realized that these politicians do nor care about us. they are only concerned about their pockets, and when i say that i am also talking about the prime ministry as well as those in opposition. For the good for country (and thats all i care about now), I believe that this matter shoulfd serve as a warning so that this practice will not happen again in dominica.
a typical example that dominica will never be prosperous as the majority of dominican are fully dosed in corrupution and it doesnt make much sense trying to speak they will never listen
maybe we should opend the prision..
Read, Read, the message and stop attacking the messenger, Finn and Peter are both sons of Laplaine, however, Dr. Finn has not insulted anyone, he was just helping us to instil some values in our actions. People are reading our comments and its a shame that we are upholding corruption and we do not care two bones about our ethical behaviours, I may not be around 20 years from now, but heaven help us in Dominica if that is the way we think. Shame on some of us.
I have a problem with your comment but respect it anyway. Dr. Finn is not trying to instill any values in us beacue he has none to instill in us. Dr Finn will receive my respect when he completes his article by condemning the UWP for doing the same thing, then and ONLY then will Dr Finn would have earned the moral authority to even speak on the issue. It happendd before with UWP and he has not condemned it so he cannot do so now because it is the same wrong doing!!! So please ask Dr Finn to re-submit his comment but include the comdemnation of his party, UWP, first, for taking the same Oacth and serving in Dominica’s Parliament ILLEGALLY before he ask anyone to resign. Satan cannot correct sin?

Dr. Finn please, relax on what you r doing. Long distance, big talker. If u were so interesting in Dominica, so called skill-full people like u should be there trying to make a difference. Instead u sit in Washington DC, right under the Devil’s nose and berp bubbles. All your efforts and hard work going towards what? I not sure what Dr. U R………. Please focus on your duties, make a difference where u r. America u devoting your life and time to, so stay focused because America has way more sh*t to clean up than Dominica. By d way I am 26yrs and I never once saw your face in La Plaine. R*E*L*A*X Fella.
we as domiicans need to come together, whether we leaving abroad or not. I personally i’m a us citizen by naturalization and a dominican by birth.I think its not fair for ron green to be representing the la plaine people all this years as a us citizen and now wants to bring somebody else down, fair is fair if it was good for run why can’t it be good for peter and skerrit after all they are still dominicans because at the end of the day your french passport still say nationality dominicain it doesnt say francais same for the us passport it doesn’t say us when it comes to nationality. I personally think they should give those guys a break. lets see what they can do to help our country the nature isle
Dr Finn, was involved in some make over…why is this slouch looking kind of smile. Are you a cosmetic doctor?
Well we don’t want that kind of lifestyle here in La Plaine
BTW, why I have never seen this man in La Plaine? Why is he giving us advice about La Plaine
Man stay away please, souplay
Are going to make some sense at all one of these days? I am glad you have a computer and internet access.
WIKILEAKS ……Thanks for the good laugh. ….I do remember Dr Finn (in school) in La Plaine. That picture of him does look kind of smarmy and cheesey!!!! lolololo!!!!!
Again we see hyppocrites at play on this forum behaving ignorantly.
It was ok for the Labour Party to travel to America and the region to shop for votes. It was ok to bring them down to vote by chartered flights the day before election and take them back the day after. It is ok to beg the Dominican community abroad for assitance. It is oK for Dominicans abroad to send money, food and materials for relatives, schools, hospitals and churches. But it is not ok for Dominicans who live abroad to voice an opinion on what’s happening in their country.
I guess the only Dominican living abroad who should have a say on whats happening in Dominica are the ones who support Labour. What a disgraceful bunch of one-sided persons commenting here. You should be ashamed of yourselves
Oh hyppocrites, foolish hyppocrites you all got to pay the price someday. If not you your children will pay.
Greetings Megzoe, lets stop the hating and insulting ok. One man stole a Gold coin yesterday you saw him commit the act and remained quiet. He got away with that act. Today that same man alleegs that another men stole a similar gold coin and is asking the law to punish that second guy. You saw the present accuser steal the gold coin yesterday would you go to the court and be a witness against the second guy tomorrow? stading on the side opf the first thief who is now the accuser? If you do then you are also guilty of stealing the first gold coin and when that comes up in court your evidence will be compromised. This is the situation that Dr Finn has placed himself in and it has nothing to do with Dominicans overseas not allowed to make their comments.Please examine the situation ok. I am not supportive of any criminal offence ok but the same stick that is used to beat the sheep must be used to beat the goat. In condemning the act today Dr. Finn had to also condemn it yesterday. Dr Fin asked that Peter St Jean resigned he should also request a pay back of all monies accepted in salaries by the UWPites who are guiolty of the same offence, DONT YOU THINK? If you have an issue with this comment ehn you also lack INTERGRITY Megzoe. I wish you Peace.

to Name, No number, you are nothing but an a with no education. Skerrit and St. Jean will live through their five years and more. That’s what I meant. It is what it is. Dat’s life, Sir.
Mr Finn SHUT UP PLEASE! why didnt you tell Mr Green to step down when he was the parl rep. He has been a US citizen for many years and been the La Plaine parl rep all the while. So only now it is a problem then. You people are too DOUBLE STANDARD. How many of the UWP present and past Parl reps have dual citizenship? Stop talking nonesense and leave Bro peter alone please…
Will Ron Green tell the people of Dominica the following
1. When did he renounce his US citizenship? ( date and month and year)
2. When did the US accepted the renounciation? (date and month)
Mr. Green is on record as saying that he was not a US citizenship at the time of his nomination for parliament before the 2009 general elections. Now that we know all that needs to be known about Roosevelt Skerrit and Petter St. Jean, Mr. Green must come and put in the public domain the specifics of his own case. He is not a stranger to his publicizing his personal information. he has doen it before. the fact that he was not elected and is not before parliament is no reason to duck the question. Mr. Green lost the seat to Petter St. jean by a mere 1 vote. So he could easily ahev been the seating Par Rep. I wish the media and the journalists par excellence would ask him these simple questions
Lennox will not ask that question, his head is too far up Skerro’s A** looking for evidence.
lmao

Dr. Finn, I understand what you’re saying , you’re right and have a strong point but at the same time who are you to come out from DC and make such a point? You just came from out of the blue and with this. Who are you really? Have you been thinking of anyting else besides politics from oér yonder? And do u want to run for MP? Sure sounds like you want to.But i still respect your opinion
THAT ARTICLE SPELLS JEALOUSY, HATE AND DECEIT.
I wonder DR. Finn had it been Ron Green who had won if you would asked him to resign.
Ron Green contested all elections as a US Citizen including the one he lost no comment on that from DR Finn. Who is this guy anyway.
Please let the Court decide on this matter.
thanks dr. finn for standing up for our beautiful dominica and the true words about our beautiful laplaine i know you we grow up in the same village you are a good man god bless you
NONSENSE! The man is a dominican by birth and has no right to step down and so is Skerrit. You would be better off getting involved in Washington Politics and not Roseau Politics, Sir.
BBA, MBA, CPA It seems that your Handle don’t mean a sh(* to you, you have no brain.. go back to school. you have no understanding of the constitution. They did not teach you that when you were buying those handles. eh! Hey!!
Why didnt you that forign dr.tell that to Ron Green all those years he represented Laplain as an american.now you running your mouth dont tell us what to do here you belong to America you live aqnd work there what have you done for Dominica nothing all you those Americans want to stay in that miserable place and tell us what to do in Paradise keep your advise.if it was good for the American then it is good for the Fgrench man shut your D** mouth
DR FINN A OR WHATEVER YOUR NAME IS STAY WHERE YOU ARE AND LEAVE UR GOOD LIFE.I WONDER HOW OFTEN U VISIT DA U TALKING ABOUT PETER.A PREACHER WHAT .DO U HAVE ANY PROOF OF WHAT U ARE SAYING .U JUST READING DNO AND MAKING JUGDEMENT. DONT WORRY ABOUT THAT WE WILL PUT ALL U TO SHAME IN MARCH.
i cannot understand mister,go back where u come from,we never live our country and run like u ,we there fighting 2 bring it up stay far hommie pl z.
What is wrong with this Finn guy.This man have been writing negative things about the labour party for years now he want to give the pepperman advice.Finn I know you hate Peter and your hate for this man have gone to the next level because he ejected your friend Ron Green from the Laplaine seat who was in the same situation you accuseing our P.M of.People like you hate Dominica and only want to see the corrupt UWP get back in office.Do something positive for the GHETTO and shut up.
This is not a personal attack but Dr. Finn like his name says, is a doctor not a judge. Only a judge can determine if the gentleman was disqualified or not. That’s how it should be. When or if the judge says he was disqualified then i will help to drag him out but unless we have the court decision we can not say for a fact that the man should go. If the man is sick and you say because of that sickness he should resign then i will accept that. LoL.
Lets us all obey the laws and do not allow ourselves to undermine the same laws we would like to be upheld. And as the constitution says a man is innocent until proven guilty by the court of law. So why disobey that fundament accept of our constitution.
Who do you think you are ? Stay in America and do your stuff, you have no saying in what happening in La Plain and Dominica. Leave America and come down to Dominica to develop the country and stop staying miles away running you mouth like a parrot…
Anyway, anyway, anyway Dominicans sort eh! What kind of comment is that? Didn’t you people see what is happening in Egypt and the support they got from Egyptians all over the world? There were more diasporas Egyptians protesting than there were people in Egyptians in Egyptians, they were in embassies all over the world! It is the Diaspora that will speak for all you when Sherri succeeds in shutting all you mouth for good! It is they that will save all you stupid, ignorant self. All you jealous of people who left Dominica. But all you need to leave to get educated and informed maybe then all you would stop with these ignorant comments.
R u contradicting yourself?
if the others could leave America and come and vote he too can stay in America and have his say what is good for the goose is good for the gander
i agree with you
it was ok to bring down laplaine people from america to vote, and it is not ok to take part in what they help create, boy all you doh good eh.
I guess it wqs only the DLP engaged in bringing home voters right? ok DLP Guilty! I guess there were no members of the UWP serving in Parliament while holding dual citizenship? ok DLP guilty! I guess UWPcan take peitions before the Court but DLP have to right to defend these Peititions? OK dlp Guilty! Is therer anything else that DLP is guilty off so I can admit to them? I have ONLY one request before yoyu throw me in jail for supporting the DLP, ASK DR FINN TO COMMENT ON THE UWP MEMBERS WHO COMMITTED THE SAME ACT FROM 1990 PLEASE, ONLY THEN CAN HE SPEAK TO THE DLP ON THAT SAME ISSUE.That goes for you too apostle.If you are fair then present fairness in your comments if not you are only partisan.
corrections:
line 1: was
line 3: petitions / no right
line 4 :petitions / there /
line 5: you throw
Total hogwash and political deceit by this obviously biased individual. If he is making this statement then in the interest of balance he should also make mention of Mr. St. Jean’s opponent and political leader of the UWP, Mr. Ron Green who admittedly also wrote to renounce his citizenship just prior to the elections.
In any case, the matter is before the courts. Let the courts decide. What’s wrong with these people man. Thirst for political power?Gosh man!!I
Whats wrong with those guys? You guys want to stay in Washington and control Dominica by remote control. you are medical Doctor. Dominica Needs Medical Doctors why don’t you come and serve your country instead of trying to run the contry by remote control?
Jackwhat is your problem?
Why do the PM and government officials go to USA to participate in Dominica’s independence celebrations organized by Dominicans residing abroad? Please answer me Jack.
Jack it is time to remove your red blinders.
Who is Hartley Henry and where is is from? is he a Dominican? he controlling skerrit. So Let Dominicans speak from wherever they are, it was ok to bring them in to vote so why now can’t they talk.
Megzoe behave.
This guy is a Dentist and he is an acolyte of the Thompson & Christian Church of the I Did Not Expect.
Ron Green contested the elections as a US citizen.
He said he renounced the Citizenship, but we have not seen and need to see the certificate of renunciation.
At the very least, we (Dominicans) want to know if he is getting Social Security payments from the US?
If he no longer wants to be a US citizen, I wonder is US Social Security Administration sending him those retirement checks?
I will write them to ask about this.
Please give me a break S.A.M.
There were hundreds of American citizens whom the Labour Party chartered planes for them to come to Dominica to vote for the party. Why then you don’t want American citizens to voice their opinions?
Megzoe it seems that you have not read any my comments adresed to you please do and reply please. Dr. Fnin needs to condemn the acts done by UWP members from 1990 then do the same for the present members of the DLP accused of the same act, he cannot leave out UWP members guilty of the same act ok, when he remained quiet when UWP was guilty of the same.Fairness AND Justice has no colour MEDZOE none!
This article reads like a Testimony..I second and third and forth that!!!
Dr Finn, i do hope your inspirational words dont fall on death ears or unconscious conscience, most consciences in Dominica are either in deep sleep, bought, or too corrupted with partisan
sentiments. God dont live in Dominica anymore my friend, Skerritt has taken over from him. Blessings and grace, gone, money and promises have replaced them. Pastors and priests and Bishops, exept for an almost non existent few, are a shameful representation of the apostles. However those who believe in and love God and righteousness must keep up the resistance, so keep on writing, and keep on holding on to the age old principles of good over evil, because history is guaranteed to repeat itsself, and historically, Good always triumph over evil. Thats why we must aspire to remain on the good side to help good triumph over evil even when it seems hopeless.
Tell Dr Finn to Spoon Off
Some day I pray you get some education.
OH PLEASE ? PETER IS IN VERY GOOD STANDING AND NOTHING YOU SAY AND DO CAN CAUSE OR CHANGE THE RULING OF THE ELECTION, SMARTY IF YOU KNOW WHAT A COURT IS !!!!!!! THEN LISTEN TO THE KIARI FM PROGRAMME ON TUESDAY NIGHT, THE MATTER IS BEFORE THE COURT AND SO THE RULING WILL COME FROM THERE. YOU ALL ARE DELUSIONAL ALL YOU ARE THE THING OF THE PAST SO GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER USE THAT DR. IN YOUR NAME TO SOUND & BE SMARTER THAN WHAT YOU WRITE.
DID’NT RON GREEN SIT IN THE PARLIMAENT AND TRAVEL AS A US CITIZEN SINCE 1995 IN THE PARLIMENT OF DOMINICA AS THE REPRESENTATIVE OF LAPLAINE, DID’NT RON ACT AS PRIME MINISTER WHILE HOLDING US CITIIZENSHIP IN 1995. YOUR SAW NO WRONG THEN AND IN YOUR BIAS CALLS STILL MADE NO MENTION OF IT ———- BOSS GO BACK WHERE YOUR CRAWLED FROM AND GIVE THAT DR IN YOUR NAME SAME RESPECT.
Totally agree but he has no integirty so he won’t.
